Beside Me 02:40
lyrics
buy track
The light that burned beside me No longer shines today And with no hand to guide me It seems I lost my way But I don't know where people go When they don't know who they are Can't you see it's killing me? I never thought I'd get this far I'm sick and tired of waiting For what I wanna see So many roles I played in But none of them were me But I don't know where people go When they don't know who they are And if I tell a story And if I sing a song Then you can just ignore me Cause no one sings for long I don't know where people go When they don't know who they are Can't you see it's killing me? But I guess I'm going far

Sacrifice 03:57
lyrics

Oh how sweet was the poison And the death which pervaded As you pulled out your dagger And the wound was created You're so beautiful it does the trick The way you act really makes me sick And I don't know where my mind has been but I'll come back every now and then Have I seen you before (yes I found you) I don't care anymore (but you want to) When your hopes get too high (then they'll haunt you) Then you'll ask yourself why (as we all do) For a time I was almost dead Followed voices inside my head To this high cliff where no one stood Drank the poison and it was good Your heart beats slow and your blood flows steady But you know damn well that you're just not ready As you hear the words of a voice you won't recall So you count out time as your mind grows weak And the knowledge you have that you did not seek Still hangs over your head like a stone that just won't fall Oh these infernal fears Oh these immortal tears Oh this unending sleep Slaughtered dead like a sheep Make your sacrifice upon your tongue Once the acolytes have all sung Soak the blood with an invisible sponge So the beast cannot bear a grudge

Shining On Fumes 04:26
lyrics
buy track
No white lines and a name you call when you're not around No bright mind's gonna frame your fall when you hit the ground No right time to ignore advice that you haven't found So just keep searching, my friend No one stares at the hourglass that you're looking through No one cares 'til the hours pass into something new No one dares ever ask themselves what they're gonna do Until it's over again There's a light in your eye It's not even shining And the thoughts you pass by Are the ones that I hide on And how long will it shine on? It's all wrong it's already gone Some might say if you act this way then you really try I don't know cause the words come slow and I'm not gonna lie There's been days when I feel like I'm just not the guy Since the journey's begun And on it goes and it just goes on and it isn't fair Cause no one knows but the path they chose and the laughs they share Maybe one day I'll look up and see you there Standing in the sun There's a light in your eye It's not even shining And the thoughts you pass by Are the ones that I hide on And how long will it shine on? It's all wrong it's already gone

Make A Wish 03:59
lyrics
buy track
Why you talking to me? Don't you know I can't hear? It's not easy to say When the thing that you fear is true See the stars, white and black in the night sky Count the scars you can see with your eye Make a list of the things that you might try Make a wish, so you don't say goodbye Why am I talking to you? I've got nothing to say Or maybe I did But you've taken that from me too Make a world, for a while make it happy Make it sad til the face turns away Count the times that I said it was nothing I changed my mind, please come back, it's okay Why am I talking to you? Why you talking to me? Give me something to do You know I still believe See the stars in the sky See the pain through these eyes There's a time and a world And I'm willing not to die

Journey's End 04:59
lyrics

You know that I might need a while To mourn the sweetness of your smile You know it's gonna drag me down You know that I'll be in denial No one said that it was easy But you don't know how hard I tried In times like these I find myself So far from who I thought I'd be It seems like every word I said They just come back to torture me It's like I'm looking down the barrel When the shots already fired No news will come today Save what your voice will say For those who never quite know what you're saying anyway Cause it's over, oh it's over Get it through your head Two birds with broken wings fall from the sky and sweetly sing And still they carry on not knowing what the night will bring And I've been waiting so long just to have this chance to say The pain is over and I think I found a better way Oh no, they cry Why does it seem you never said goodbye? My friend, you see Some things just weren't meant to be No news will come today Save what your voice will say For those who never quite know what you're saying anyway Cause it's over, oh it's over Get it through your head Prepare for journey's end Save up the time you spend The time you stole from those you know would want you back again Cause it's over, oh it's over Your time is now
